Dotty Berzy completed a “Searching for Good Nutrition” treasure hunt at her hospital. Employees started in the Nutrition Services Office, where they picked up a badge and a bag to hold their treats.
Treasure HuntThe MyPlate Poster was posted at 6 different areas in the hospital. At each stop the employees received a clue that took them to the next stop. They were also given a treat relating to a different group and message for MyPlate (a jump rope, a piece of fruit, etc.), an informational handout and a sticker for the back of their badge. When they had gone to all six stops, they had walked 3/4 of a mile. At the last stop they deposited their badges for entry into a drawing for a $50 gift certificate. The hunt was held during one shift.

Judy Doherty, MPS, PCII discovered her love of cooking at her grandmother's side, stirring raisin oatmeal on a Saturday morning. By 15 she had her first food service job. At 18 she was accepted to the Culinary Institute of America, where she graduated second in her class, then went on to the Fachschule Richemont in Switzerland to study pastry arts and baking. A decade with Hyatt Hotels followed before she founded Food and Health Communications with a single conviction: food that is good for you should taste extraordinary.

She has earned the American Culinary Federation Bronze Medal, Gold Medal, and ACF Chef of the Year award.
